Pour la constitution des taxons supérieurs, la plupart des zoologistes systématiciens, fidèles à la tradition linnéenne, se sont servis des caractères morphologiques pris dans leur ensemble, c'est-à-dire de l'aspect général des espèces considérées. Dans l'optique de cette approche typologique, on utilise les différences et les ressemblances superficielles au même rang que les caractères indiquant des relations phylogénétiques. Avec le triomphe de l'évolu- tionnisme, une conception dynamique de l'espèce se superpose à la notion primitive : il ne suffit pas de définir et bien délimiter morphologiquement une espèce, de désigner sa place dans « l'échelle des êtres », mais il faut établir ses liens de parenté dans le schéma évolutif, déterminer son emplacement dans la « généalogie des êtres ». Actuellement, les notions taxonomiques sont liées à celles de la géné­ tique des populations. En démontant certains

F. Davie Queensland Museum, PO Box 3300, South Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. – An annotated checklist of the extant brachyuran crabs of the world is presented for the first time. Over 10,500 names are treated including 6,793 valid species and subspecies (with 1,907 primary synonyms), 1,271 genera and subgenera (with 393 primary synonyms), 93 families and 38 superfamilies. Nomenclatural and taxonomic problems are reviewed in detail, and many resolved. Detailed notes and references are provided where necessary. The constitution of a large number of families and superfamilies is discussed in detail, with the positions of some taxa rearranged in an attempt to form a stable base for future taxonomic studies. This is the first time the nomenclature of any large group of decapod crustaceans has been examined in such detail.

  • The Crustacea Decapoda (Brachyura and Anomura) of Eniwetok Atoll, Marshall Islands, with Special Reference to the Obligate Commensals of Branching Corals 1
    The Crustacea Decapoda (Brachyura and Anomura) of Eniwetok Atoll, Marshall Islands, with special reference to the obligate commensals of branching corals 1 John S. GARTH Allan Hancock Foundation Univer5ity of Southern California 2 and Eniwetok Ma rine Biological Laboratory Introduction The brachyuran decapod crustaceans of the Marsh all Islands have been reviewed by Balss (1938) and by Miyake (1938, 1939). These reports stem from the German and Jap anese occupations, respect ively, the former being the result of the Pacific Exp edition of Dr. Sixten Bock, 1917-1918, the latter th e result of the Micronesia Expedition of Prof. Te iso Esaki, 1937-1938. According to Fosberg (1956, p. 1), J aluit Atoll was the headquarters of both the German and the Japan ese administrations, a fact that accounts for the preponderanc e of record s from the southern Marshall Isl ands. Additional coverage of the southern Marsh alls was provided by the 1950 Arno Atoll Expedition of the Coral Atoll Program of the Pa cific Science Board, the decapod crustaceans collected by Dr. R. W. Hiatt having been reported by Holthuis (1953). Carcinologically speak­ ing, the northern Marshalls ar e less well known, collections having been made only at Likieb Atoll by both Dr. Bock and Prof. Esaki and at Kwajalein Atoll by Prof . Esaki alone. Except for the shrimps, reported by Chace (1955), the extensive collections made in connection with Operation Crossroads in 1946- 1947, which includ ed Bikini, Rongelap, Rongerik, and Eniwetok atolls (Fosberg, 1956, p. 4), are at the U.S. Nationa l Museum awaiting stud y.

  • Polydectus Cupulifer (Latreille, 1812) (Decapoda, Xanthidae): First Record from Taiwan
    POLYDECTUS CUPULIFER (LATREILLE, 1812) (DECAPODA, XANTHIDAE): FIRST RECORD FROM TAIWAN BY SHOU-YU CHEN1) and PAN-WEN HSUEH1,2) 1) Department of Life Sciences, National Chung Hsing University, 250 Kou Kuang Road, Taichung 402, Taiwan ABSTRACT The unusual xanthid reef crab, Polydectus cupulifer (Latreille, 1812), is characterized by possessing a very thick covering of setae all over its external surfaces and its habit of carrying a large sea anemone on each of its chelae. It is here recorded for the first time from Taiwan as well as from the Chinese seas in general. RÉSUMÉ Le crabe Xanthidae inhabituel, Polydectus cupulifer (Latreille, 1812), est caractérisé par la présence d’une couverture très épaisse de soies sur toutes ses surfaces externes et son habitude de porter une grande anémone de mer sur chacune de ses pinces. Il est ici signalé pour la première fois de Taiwan aussi bien que des mers de Chine en général. INTRODUCTION Among the many unsorted specimens in the National Museum of Natural Science (NMNS), Taichung, Taiwan, Republic of China, we recently found a specimen of a monotypic genus, Polydectus, viz., the xanthid reef crab, Polydectus cupulifer (Latreille, 1812) (subfamily Polydectinae). This unusual species is characterized by a very dense covering of soft setae (tomentum) all over its carapace and appendages, and has been called the “teddy-bear crab” in popular literature. Only two other species of polydectine crab have previously been reported from Taiwan: Lybia caestifera (Alcock, 1898) and L. tessellata (Latreille, 1812) (cf. Ho et al., 2000; Ng et al., 2001). 2) Corresponding author; e-mail: [email protected] © Koninklijke Brill NV, Leiden, 2007 Crustaceana 80 (4): 411-415 Also available online: www.brill.nl/cr 412 SHOU-YU CHEN & PAN-WEN HSUEH TAXONOMY Family XANTHIDAE Subfamily POLYDECTINAE Dana, 1851 Genus Polydectus H.

  • Decapoda-Brachyura) from the Laccadive Archipelago ^
    /. Mar. biol. Ass. India, 1961, 3 (1 & 2): 120-136 ON SOME CRABS (DECAPODA-BRACHYURA) FROM THE LACCADIVE ARCHIPELAGO ^ By C. SANKARANKUTTY Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute EARLIER investigations on the brachyuran fauna of the Maldive and Laccadive Archipelagos were initiated by Alcock (1895, 1896, 1898, 1899, 1899b and 1900) ; who recorded 43 species of crabs belonging to 9 families. Subsequently, Borradaile (1903 and 1906) reported 191 species including 27 already described by Alcock ; which brought up the total record from this region to 207 species. The present account deals with 36 species of which 5 have hitherto not been described from these regions. Of the above 5 species (indicated by a single asterisk in the list given below) 4 are not known from the Indian peninsula. Another 11 species (denoted by double asterisks) have been previously reported from the Maldives but not from the Laccadives. Out of the 36 species reported in this paper, 29 species have been collected from Minicoy and the rest from Kavarathy, Amenidivi and Bitra Islands. Part of the material was kindly handed over to me by Dr. S. Jones, who collected them in 1958 during a cruise to the Laccadive Islands. Additional material was collected in the year 1961 by Messrs. P. T. Thomas, and Alimanickfan from Minicoy and by Mr. P. M. Sayeed from the Laccadive and Amenidive Islands. The following is the list of species reported in this paper :— Family: PORTUNIDAE 1. **Thalamita tenuipes Borradaile. 2. *7'. integra Dana. 3. T. admete (Herbst). 4. T. cooperi Borradaile. 5. *Charybdis (Goniosupradens) obtmifrons Leene.

Fautin Date approved: 15 April 2013 ii ABSTRACT Aliciidae and Thalassianthidae look similar because they possess both morphological features of branched outgrowths and spherical defensive structures, and their identification can be confused because of their similarity. These sea anemones are involved in a symbiosis with zooxanthellae (intracellular photosynthetic algae), which is implicated in the evolution of these morphological structures to increase surface area available for zooxanthellae and to provide protection against predation.

This is central to the goal of supporting and promoting sustainable coastal development in the region, as well as contributing to the global base of marine science. The journal publishes original research articles dealing with all aspects of marine science and coastal manage- ment. Topics include, but are not limited to: theoretical studies, oceanography, marine biology and ecology, fisheries, recovery and restoration processes, legal and institutional frameworks, and interactions/relationships between humans and the coastal and marine environment. In addition, Western Indian Ocean Journal of Marine Science features state-of-the-art review articles and short communications.
